Ako rin mag reresign na sana. Tapos meron na ring uupa ng house namin, nabenta na rin car. So panong gagawin.. sa May dapat BM namin.. so far sa airbnb, mga April palang pwede icancel. Bagsak presyo rin yun mga airbnb ngayon.
Problema, nakapag heads up na ako sa boss ko na mag reresign na ako.. ano gagawin ko? Haha.. wala pa naman formal resignation. Kaya lang kakahiya? Pero ayaw ko naman ilipad pamilya ko sa ganitong situation. Saklap.
haha. Nakakagulo sa utak. Hehe

Ang Visa 489 ba considered resident visa? Kase yung travel ban ng Australia starting 9PM Australia local time , sabi foreigners and non-residents.
I wonder if as Visa 489 holder , with the assumption that di ka pa nag initial entry, we're already considered a resident visa.?

Sa pagkakaalam ko hindi siya resident visa as yung katulad ng 189 at 190. Temporary visa so apektado siya sa travel ban. IED pa naman namin sa Nov. Sana ma-lift na by that time.
